Some of those are pretty massive. Why the hell can a developer nail compression on one console and not the other. (well, nail better)?

uth113570d ago

I doubt it's just a compression problem. There are probably more the amount of runtime components that need to be distributed with the game to make it work

SlappingOysters3569d ago

So that would be tied specifically to the hardware you think? It would not be the same runtime components across the two titles?

uth113569d ago

yes exactly, things like hardware/OS. Like (speculating on the details here) this game may require .net version x, while that game requires version y. there's no guarantee that either will be installed on the target xbox, so the game ships with them. .net being an MS technology it's not likely Sony uses it.

Just using that as an example as I don't know if any Xbox games actually use .net,

SlappingOysters3566d ago

Thanks uth11 that was great insight!

sarahnade3569d ago

Wow, they really add up. Crazy how you can have the exact same collection and much less memory on Xbox.

MysticStrummer3569d ago

Wow. I heard a Gamestop employee talking about this to a customer, but I had no idea the differences could be so large. ESO is already a huge install on PS4, but damn...

kinda feels like it just makes the image have less contrast, removing shadows somewhat.
Even if it's "more realistic" I think the standard looks better. Not in every situation but the standard likely runs better so I'll side with that more than likely.

Milk...get your milk...and so much more. Really when you release the same games in three editions over 15 years it's amazing how much money, and the amount of sales you earn. It's amazing how no one can compete.

Mr_cheese41d ago

To be fair, no many companies could release the same game over and over. They've earned that whether we agree or not

DarXyde41d ago

I mean Resident Evil 4 has had longer legs and still hasn't done anything like this.

Profchaos41d ago (Edited 41d ago )

GTA v isn't the only game that's released three consoles generations running but nothing has sold those numbers including GTA San Andreas which is now 4 console generations deep.

anast41d ago

Looks like a 2040 release for GTA6

gold_drake41d ago

thats insane right?
absolutely insane

rlow141d ago

No surprising considering that it’s been on every major platform and store.

I decided to look up the longest and most sold games list. To my surprise Tetris has takes the top spot.
